Starting Speedrun, Let the World Know Kyushu Speed!

"So many Piglins!"

In the Nether, Gu Yu walked out of the fortress to find the entrance swarming with Piglins.

He hadn't encountered this group of monsters before. Had they been respawned recently?

Regardless, Gu Yu was happy.

"Finally, I can use the Gold Ingots I brought!"

He put on his golden boots and swaggered into the Piglin crowd.

The Piglins merely glanced at him, and seeing no golden equipment on his feet, they didn't attack.

Instead, when Gu Yu threw out a Gold Ingot, they rushed over to inspect it and threw back random items.

This scene once again sent the Samurai Nation viewers into a frenzy.

"Why aren't the Piglins attacking him?"

"I went through all that trouble to lure the Piglins, and you're telling me they only attack Yamamoto?"

"Damn Yamamoto, serves you right for being buried in the dirt!"

"Stupid pig, wasting both time and resources!"

"The Piglins are even throwing Obsidian at him? This game is unplayable!"

"Why doesn't a waste like Yamamoto just die in a Zombie Horde already!"

The Nether hadn't respawned Zombies yet, so the Samurai Nation viewers could only place their hopes on the Piglins.

With so many Piglins, even if they couldn't make Gu Yu as miserable as Mark and Kapil, they should at least be able to frustrate him, right?

But that wasn't the case.

He picked up quite a bit of Obsidian. Even the "despicable" tactic of "mining the portal" seemed ridiculous now.

What was more unbearable than their own player fleeing in disarray was seeing other players stroll through with ease.

They could only watch helplessly as Gu Yu left with a backpack full of resources!

"The Nether portal is destroyed?"

Noticing the half-destroyed Nether portal, Gu Yu frowned slightly.

He wasn't sure if it was an Enderman or another player's doing. If it was an Enderman, then there was nothing to be done.

If it was another player, it didn't matter.

The Sudden Change would teach everyone equally.

Zombie Hordes, Blood Moons, and Zombies that strengthened every ten days.

Even veteran players couldn't avoid a rollover in hardcore mode, let alone this group of newbies.

He rebuilt the Nether portal and returned. The familiar feeling of weightlessness washed over him.

When he opened his eyes again, Gu Yu was back on his Floating Island.

"Thank goodness for Steve's Leg!"

Feeling the weight in his backpack, he said thankfully.

Carrying too much in the backpack would put him in a burdened state. With his original physique, it would take a long time to transport all these items back.

Steve's Leg greatly reduced the negative effects of the burden, allowing him to move faster than others!

He put the items back into the storage chest and looked around.

Compared to when Gu Yu left, the most striking thing was a wall made of stone that had appeared on the left.

It looked about twenty blocks high and forty blocks wide, appearing slightly larger than the Floating Island itself.

As he got closer, he noticed a difference from ordinary Raw Stone.

The wall was covered in faint golden patterns!

They flickered as if breathing. He placed his hand on it and closed his eyes, listening carefully.

He vaguely heard the sounds of roaring and killing, placing him on a battlefield filled with a sense of grimness!

"What an imposing structure!"

"Is this the Great Wall? It's so different from ordinary Raw Stone buildings!"

"There's a feeling I can't quite describe, but just looking at it makes me feel passionate!"

"I can't take it anymore, I need to go kill some Japanese pirates!"

Through the screen, this feeling was transmitted to every viewer in Kyushu.

It was a primal urge, deeply ingrained, making it difficult to remain calm!

[Block has a new structure, Great Wall · Myth (Under Construction)]

[Construction is not yet complete, this structure cannot provide block points temporarily!]

[Description: Built by the Architect of the Sky Island for his supreme ruler, it is said to inherit the thousands of years of history of a certain civilization and contains special power.]

[Permissions unlocked: Copper Golem, Song of Great Wind.]

He opened his eyes, and everything he heard vanished as if it had never existed.

The Copper Golem, Gu Yu, knew that it was similar to the Iron Golem, but made of copper and shorter in stature. It would not participate in combat.

It would help organize and sort treasure chests, belonging to the logistics-type creatures.

The Song of Great Wind was a built-in function of the Great Wall, somewhat similar to a beacon.

[Song of Great Wind: All friendly creatures within the block gain +15% Attack, +15% HP, and +10% Speed.]

[Description: A song buried in the history of an ancient civilization, its power is immense and chilling, invigorating the spirit.]

It provided block buffs.

To have so many buffs after building just a little.

Gu Yu was increasingly glad that he had transformed this special Zombie Villager!

"My esteemed Lord, you have returned!"

Upon seeing Gu Yu, the Architect hurried down from the Raw Stone path he was building.

Several villagers followed behind him, holding blocks in their hands, appearing to be in the process of construction.

"Please forgive my presumption in smashing your wooden boat after seeing the villagers."

The villagers were transformed by feeding them Golden Apples before entering the Nether.

Gu Yu had been worried about how to get Emeralds, but now he saw.

Regardless of their profession, under the Architect's training, they had reached at least the Journeyman level.

The highest-ranking ones had become Masters and could directly trade the best items!

Having such a subordinate NPC saved Gu Yu a lot of worry.

"You've done well!"

He praised the Architect, and small red hearts appeared above his head.

This was a sign of increased favorability.

"The dangers of the future have not yet arrived, keep up the good work!"

Without using resources, he could increase favorability with just a few words, which Gu Yu was very pleased with.

He patted the Architect's shoulder as encouragement and returned to his room.

"What effect will the Great Wall have when it's fully complete?"

Gazing into the distance, Gu Yu's mind wandered.

Regardless, this was one of the best aids for resisting the Sudden Change in the future.

In the later stages of the Sudden Change, even on Floating Islands, those Zombies could lock onto them by building blocks across the void!

He looked up; the sky had already turned dark. But thinking of the power of the Zombies in the later stages.

He had to seize the time to develop!

He found Dirt blocks and flowers, then poured in two buckets of water.

He threw in a Diamond, and BOOM!

A thunderclap struck, and the Dusk portal appeared.

He had prepared an Anvil in advance and took out Enchantment Books to enchant all his equipment.

Thanks to the reward for being the first, he was not lacking any enchantment buffs now.

Sweeping Blade, Unbreaking, Sharpness, Mending, Protection, Feather Falling...

He also took out the special reward weapon from before, the Heavy Hammer.

All enchantments were complete, and the power of the curses flowed through him, giving Gu Yu a sense of security.

"Speedrun, let the whole world see what Kyushu speed is!"

On the other side of the Floating Island.

Park Sam-chang lay on a Mushroom block, bored.

He had expanded his Dirt farm to ten blocks, giving it a basic scale.

[Current Block Comprehensive Score: 4 (Micro Block)]

[Player Ranking: 10]

A full four points, directly entering the top ten rankings!

BOOM!

A thunderclap flashed nearby, startling Park Sam-chang.

Seeing that it was from Gu Yu's side, he lay back down with understanding.

"Found the Nether entrance so quickly? He really knows how to stir things up!"

Blocks obscured his view, preventing him from seeing the Floating Island clearly, but he could make some deductions.

Gu Yu finding the Dusk entrance didn't surprise him, but entering at this particular time...

Park Sam-chang let out a cold laugh.

"I don't know what Kyushu is thinking, piling up Raw Stones to build a wall, but lately, the Zombies are getting stronger and stronger."

Outside was nothing but Zombie Hordes; he didn't know which parentless creature had created them.

But no matter how chaotic it was outside, the Block was always the safest!

His Mushroom Island wouldn't spawn monsters; he just needed to develop it slowly, and it would naturally become a medium-sized civilization.

He'd definitely win without trying!

At most, he'd collect some resources during the day; no need to fight and scramble like others!

"Hurry up and go to Dusk. Staying in the Block all day fixing that broken wall, you have no idea what's happening outside!"

"Swallowed by the Zombie Hordes, the Floating Island will be mine!"
